What are VServers
The [http://linux-vserver.org Linux VServer Project] provides Linux kernel-based virtual servers running on a single piece of hardware.
VServers are very useful for quickly setting up a set of restricted services for testing or production use.
VServers are not as popular as the similar [http://www.xen-source.com XEN] Hypervisor, but help you a lot, if you have to administrate a large number of servers and services.
While it will take some time until XEN is integrated into Ubuntu, VServers are available now.
Installation
Installation is quite simple - you need:
- Kernel with VServer patch
- util-vserver
- vserver-debiantools
You can install these packages if you add the following lines to your sources.list:
breezy
deb http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ breezy uniklu-vserver #deb-src http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ breezy uniklu-vserver
dapper
deb http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ dapper uniklu-vserver #deb-src http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/ubuntu.uniklu/ dapper uniklu-vserver
The uniklu archives are signed - if you want get rid of apt-get warnings: {{{$ wget http://ubuntu.uni-klu.ac.at/uniklu-debuild.pub $ sudo apt-key add uniklu-debuild.pub }}}
To install the VServer Kernel and utils enter:
breezy
# apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-11-686 # apt-get install util-vserver vserver-debiantools
dapper
# apt-get install linux-image-2.6.12-14-686 # apt-get install util-vserver vserver-debiantools
You should get the following revisions
- breezy
kernel
-11-2.6.12-11.24vs (one api number higher than the standard kernel)
util-vserver
>= 0.30.208-4ubuntu1
vserver-debiantools
>= 0.2.5
- dapper
kernel
-14-2.6.15-14.18vs (one api number higher than the standard kernel)
util-vserver
>= 0.30.209-2
vserver-debiantools
>= 0.2.5
The vserver-debiantools do not work 100% but should help you setting your first vserver quickly - see [http://support.uni-klu.ac.at/VServer Uniklu VServer Info]
The Kernel is the standard Ubuntu Kernel with the Vserver patch applied.
- breezy: Vserver patch 2.0 for kernel-2.6.12
- dapper: Vserver patch 2.0.1.2 for kernel-2.6.15
